I don't know which is the office for you, but no, you don't have a choice, USCIS makes that choice for you.

It depends on the county you live in.

They definitely do not allow you to choose the most convenient district office! At the time we were AOSing, we lived just ten minutes away from the Portland, OR district office - and since this was back in February of 2005, everything was then being done at the DO level...however, we had to travel a good couple hundred miles up to Seattle several times (once to hand in paperwork, then for EAD, then for interview and then our last infopass visit they stamped my passport), as we were just the wrong side of the darn river in WA! :P

Although, they were very nice and allowed me to do Biometrics in Portland! :D

And of course since then, we have moved up to Seattle anyways.

01/10/05 - Arrived back in US

01/26/05 - Got Married! WooHoo!

02/14/05 - Had Medical Exam

02/22/05 - Filed for AOS in Seattle, in person

03/31/05 - Got EAD!!

04/02/05 - Biometrics and Fingerprinting

05/19/05 - AOS Interview - awaiting decision...

08/24/05 - (conditional) Permanent Resident

09/08/05 - Passport stamped in Seattle

09/19/05 - Recieved actual Greencard! YAY!!!

05/24/07 - 90 days to remove conditions starts!

06/02/07 - Filed I-751, California Service Center

08/09/07 - Biometrics and Fingerprinting

08/28/07 - I-751 Approved & conditions are removed!

09/12/07 - Recieved 10 year Greencard! YEAH!!!

hi samantha lou

thats what i cant understand the states is a big country and they should have more offices...my friends had to travel 10 hours to do theirs ...and on the other scale all australians have to travel to sydney for their interviews for their visa even though each state has a u.s. embassey..go figure that one out..although i have figured it out i still dont agree with the loss of income and money spent on hotels and flights etc etc....

sighhhhhhhhhhhhhh

take care
